I am a child of the early 1980s, defined by the personal computer explosion, new wave music, and post-modern artistic style of that era. Co-founded MobyGames. I'm an assembly programmer, demoscener, unix systems engineer, husband, and father. I sometimes write things of dubious value at https://trixter.oldskool.org/.
